MDM Scorecards

The MDM Scorecards page at /mdm/scorecards measures master-data health: completeness, accuracy, freshness, uniqueness, and conformity per entity type. It's the DQ Scorecard's sibling — same layout, same letter grades, but the metrics are MDM-specific.

Dimensions measured

DimensionDefinition
Completeness% of required attributes populated
Accuracy% of attributes passing validation rules (DQ Suite)
Freshness% of records updated within their SLA window
Uniqueness1 - (duplicates / total) — measures consolidation effectiveness
Conformity% of attribute values matching reference data / patterns

A weighted average produces the score. Default weights (overridable):

  • Completeness 25%
  • Accuracy 30%
  • Freshness 15%
  • Uniqueness 20%
  • Conformity 10%

Views

  • By entity type — Customer / Product / Account
  • By source — how clean is each source system feeding MDM
  • By steward — quality on entities owned by each steward
  • By domain — for orgs that scope MDM by business domain

Targets and watchlists

Set per-entity-type target grades. Below-target cells highlight red and feed the Watchlist strip.

Drill-in

Click any cell to open detail showing:

  • Which attribute(s) are dragging the score
  • Sample failing records (top 100)
  • Change in score over the past 30 days

This is where you diagnose why score dropped — was it a new source feed dumping malformed data? A stewardship backlog? A retired ref-data code that hasn't been cleaned up?

Coverage gap

Special view: Uncovered entities — entities with no DQ rules attached. Encourages building rule coverage so the score is meaningful.
